Sikary SPOD Pod Kit Review

 　　Portable box-style charging pod-and-device kits were the second type of product I ever tried. I remember buying a similar product around 2013. It was also charged through an outer case, then you would take out the device and use it, while the pods came with flavors included, so there was no need to buy e-liquid separately.

  　　Overall, its biggest strengths are convenience when going out, fast charging, and easy portability. You can just slip the whole charging case into your pocket, and the device stays inside the case charging. When you want a few puffs, just take it out and vape, and the device is less likely to get dirty inside.   　　The downside is that the flavor is on the softer side, vapor production is relatively small, and a deep draw does not deliver the direct punch you get from high-wattage devices.   　　The packaging is entirely in English. The front shows the product logo and an image of the device kit. The back lists the package contents, instructions, and an anti-counterfeit QR code.   　　The full kit includes: the device, charging case, 2 pods, data cable, and user manual.   　　This is a very simple type of product. Just attach the pod to the device and inhale to vape, then place it back into the case for charging. In other words: a truly “foolproof e-cigarette.”   　　The pods come in individual packaging, with two flavors in total: tobacco and fruit. The first one I tried was the tobacco flavor. The vapor feels very smooth on the inhale, with no real punch. By punch, I mean the direct force you get from high wattage, not the nicotine throat hit. As for throat hit, it does have nicotine content, so you can feel it on a deep draw.   　　As for installation: first, pull the two rubber strips at the bottom of the pod straight downward and remove them. (If you do not remove these two rubber strips, no vapor will come out, so be sure not to skip this step.)   　　If that is still unclear, keep looking at the pictures below.   　　The mouthpiece design of the pod is similar to a real cigarette, while the inside uses a prefilled e-liquid design. Yellow is for fruit flavors, and black is for tobacco flavors.   　　The bottom of the pod uses gold-plated contacts to connect with the device, allowing current to pass through and create the vaporization effect.   　　Unlike the power banks we normally use, which are separate from the phone and need to be carried as two different items, this charging case is much more portable.   　　This vaping device charging case uses an integrated design, allowing the device to be inserted directly into the case for charging. There is no need to carry separate parts, which makes it much more convenient when going out.   　　Main advantages of the charging case:   　　Excellent portability.   　　Soft to the touch, with no sharp edges, and comfortable to hold.   　　Button-release lid design, which gives it a more premium feel.   　　When the pod and device are stored inside, they are also protected from dust.   　　I have been using this pod for the past two days. Quite a few friends saw the outer case and thought it was a “facial cream” container. That is understandable though, because the case really does look quite upscale, almost like something bought through an overseas personal shopper.   　　I still have not tried the fruit flavor, because I have been using the tobacco one for two days and still have not finished it, so I have been too lazy to switch.   　　Let me describe the tobacco flavor more specifically: overall, the tobacco taste is fairly light, the vapor is smooth, and a deep inhale gives some throat hit. The flavor is close to a mild tobacco, with just a tiny hint of bitterness on the exhale.   　　Vapor production: the amount of vapor is relatively small. Compared with a real cigarette, the difference does not feel very big to me. Visually, the vapor output seems roughly equivalent to around 10 watts.
